My experience is no. to do a winter model with actual weather data I have to make a file with January to June as the second year and September to December
as the first year and then I can run a heating season model of October to May.

Subject: [EnergyPlus_Support] Does EnergyPlus accept multi-year weather files with arbitrary begin and end dates?
I suppose I can find the answers by doing some test runs, but I thought I'd ask and see if
anyone knows the answer to the question posed in my subject line.
If EnergyPlus can accept multi-year weather files, e.g., one that goes from July 15, 2011
through July 14, 2013, how would the monthly results be tabulated ?
